Computers, Jet Airplanes, and Living Systems: Not of Matter

Here is what Founding Father (of the United States of America) George Washington said about the Origin and Understanding of Life on Earth:
"It is impossible to reason without arriving at a Supreme Being. Religion is as necessary to reason, as reason is to religion. The one cannot exist without the other. A reasoning being would lose his reason, in attempting to account for the great phenomena of nature, had he not a Supreme Being to refer to; ... --- George Washington, Programs and Papers, U.S. George Washington Bi-Centennial Commission, 1932, p. 275."
Computers and jet airplanes are far simpler
than Living Cells (capitalized because of the outstanding Architecture of their
Designs). But do you know why elementary-matter-left-to-itself cannot assemble a
computer or an airplane? Because elementary-matter-left-to-itself cannot
take mixtures of elements out of the ground, and refine aluminum, or copper, and
cannot make plastics, or electrical systems , or, still less, shape such
required components into the required shapes, or, still less, assemble them with
the right connections in just the right places. For the same reasons,
elementary matter left to itself is even far less able ever to assemble anything
close to a Living Cell, or still much less, its reproductive system, which is an
entire other Architecture in itself, within, but depending upon, the
Architecture of the Cell.
Consider the experiments attempting to produce
even the smallest sub-components (amino-acids) of Life-Class Polymers
(Life-Class Giant Molecules). Those experiments only produced a poisonous
brew of entirely the wrong kind of amino acids, for the Life-Class Polymers of
Life are made of exclusively "left-handed" molecules, and so elementary matter
would be entirely unable to produce the right kind of molecules, as elementary
matter left itself has entirely no way to select only the "left-handed"
molecules and arrange only those into exactly the right places to make even a
single Life-Class Polymer (which, alone, would still be a universe away from
Life).
In fact, since computers and jet airplanes are
far less complicated than Living Cells, we should logically expect that if there
ever 'were' billions of years for elementary matter left to itself to fall into
any particular design, and 'if' the sedimentary banks of the earth's crust
really 'did' take 'billions' of years to form (but in reality most of the
fossil-holding sedimentary banks had to be formed in just the 11 months of
Pan-Oceanic Universal Sub-Oceanic Volcanic Cataclysm which Noah and his family
survived), then (on the assumption that elementary matter 'had' 'billions' of
years to 'assemble' anything), we should expect the simpler to have been formed
much more often than the very complex: i.e., we should expect that computers and jet
airplanes would appear deeper down in the sedimentary banks than anything close
to a Living Cell, because computers and jet airplanes, due to their relative
simplicity, would have been formed far sooner (being far less complex) than
anything close to a Living Cell, since
the simpler is far more likely to be formed by elementary material properties
than the extremely complex. But guess what?
We don't find computers
and jet airplanes buried deep under the Kinds of Living Things which were buried
deep in sedimentary banks. Surprised? (You ought to be, if you have
believed the lied claiming that matter-left-to-itself ever fell into the
arrangement of anything as complex as Life: you ought to be surprised that it
did not fall into far, far simpler arrangements, long before, and much more
often than, it could ever fall into arrangements as complex as Living Systems.
But in fact, all we find in the sedimentary banks of the earth's crust is the
sudden miracle of Diverse Kinds of Living Systems, just what the Bible's Book of
Genesis, Chapters 1 -12 tells us we should expect to find as the consequence of
Creation of Diverse Kinds followed by their almost Universal Destruction in a
Global, Pan-Oceanic Volcanic-Cataclysm.)
Now, Bill Gates' handiwork is reflected in his product, the
various versions of Windows (3.0, 3.1, '95, '98, '2000), and you can bet he
wants his trademarks and copyrights acknowledged by those who interact with
Windows (you can also bet he would not be particularly overjoyed to hear
somebody claiming that those programs were assembled not by persons he knows but
by elementary-matter-left-to-itself --- that would certainly interfere with his
relationship with them).
So how do you think God feels, when
His Trademark Handiwork is all over Living Systems (which matter-left-to-itself
never had a chance to come close to forming), seeing that a nation He blessed
mightily in its foundation has largely turned its back on Him, and is so
mightily engaged in trying to deny His Trademarks and Copyrights (trying to
disaffirm His Authorship of Life) that said nation which He has for so long so
mightily blessed is now spending untold tens of billions of dollars on the
private materialist false religious enterprise of NASA which is engaged in
asserting that matter-left-to-itself formed Living Systems (and that nations
museums and schools are trumpeting that lie so loud it reaches heaven as a
stench in God's nostrils)?
Look what happened to Russia when it turned to
materialism. God might continue to bless the U.S.A. to an extent for the
sake of those citizens in it who continue to acknowledge His Authorship of, and
Providential Care for, the Life He created (the way God told Abraham he would
not destroy Sodom if Abraham could find a certain number of God-fearing people
in it), but do you think God is going to abundantly bless that nation as much as
He could (and would) if that nation were not spending its money "for that which
is not bread?" (Isaiah 55:2), i.e., for that which is emptiness and vain pursuit which will never satisfy or support Life
and which is therefore contrary to God's Will? ... ; i.e., do
you think God will abundantly bless a nation as much as He could, when that
nation is spending its resources on the materialist false science proceeding
from materialist
false religion at NASA, where its' projects are devoted to attempting to prove
that it was not God Who Authored Life, but elementary matter left to itself (an
absurd and completely unscientific proposition)?
Note: Any polymer company, like, say,
GEPolymerland, can tell you that the reason they are in business,) is that elemental
matter, left to itself, does not produce even rudimentary large polymers (let
alone any of Life-Class, whose proteins are entirely "left-handed",
and still less multiplied mutually-interdependent interactive mechanisms made
out of such Life-Class polymers, which are what Life is made out of), so we
cannot just go out to fields of elemental-matter-left-to-itself and dig any
polymers up. We only know about polymers from the study of the molecules
of which Life is comprised, molecules of a structure that
elemental-matter-left-to-itself never approaches.
In sum, there is no
accounting for the existence of Life without the existence of a Creator; and the
architectural configurations of the Diverse Kinds of Living Things in this
world, "each with seed in it, according to its Kind", perfectly matches the
description given 10 times in Genesis Chapter One of the Holy Bible, which tells
anyone with eyes to see that the Bible is the Creator's Book given to us for our
good, benefit, enlightenment, and guidance in all things most essential for us
to know in Life.
